1: For One's Conviction (1)

At that time, in Ichigaya--

Maki: It's been a while, Yomi.
Suzuka: I'm glad to see you're fine.
Yomi: ...So you did come after all.
Maki: Come back with us. You don't need to do what President Takatsu tells you anymore.
Suzuka: Yukari-sama is alive and well. Let's dedicate ourselves to her once more, as her elite guard.
Yomi: ...Fufu.
Maki: Yomi... Laughed?
Suzuka: ...What's so funny?
Yomi: Well, you and Shidou-san... You don't understand any of this.
Suzuka: ...I take it, we don't need to restrain ourselves then.
Maki: We will stop you, Yomi.
Yomi: ............



2: For One's Conviction (2)

Yomi: ............That should be enough.
Maki: Wait, are you just going to leave, Yomi!!
Suzuka: ...She's already gone.
Maki: I know. I talked a big game, but in the end, I couldn't do anything to stop her.
Suzuka: What are you despairing about? We'll have another chance. Or have you already given up on her?
Maki: You're right; we can try again. Next time for sure.
Suzuka: Good, that's the spirit.
Maki: But still, I don't understand. Why would Yomi go that far for President Takatsu?
Suzuka: I don't know the reason, but... In her eyes, I saw strong determination-- A form of conviction behind her actions.
Maki: Conviction...
Suzuka: But now isn't the time. I'm worried about Takirihime. Let's return to the Ministry of Defense.



3: Two Princesses (1)

Kanami: Ayumu-chan...
Ayumu: Come on, let's keep going! Etou-san!
Kaoru: We're in a pinch, Hiyoyon. Do something.
Hiyori: This isn't the time for your crap!
Sayaka: She's coming... Mai.
Ayumu: Nn?
Hiyori: Tagitsuhime...!
Tagitsu: Too long we've been apart. My other half.
Kanami: Takirihime!
Takiri: .........
Tagistu: This is your answer, then?
Takiri: The potential of humans... I decided it would be unfortunate to lose.
Tagitsu: How foolish.
Takiri: .........
Tagitsu: .........
Kanami: Takirihime!
Ayumu: HAA-!!
Kanami: Out of the way, Ayumu-chan!
Ayumu: We finally get to fight together though? I can finally match your sword, Etou-san!
Ayumu: So let's keep on fighting!



4: Two Princesses (2)

Kanami: Takirihime!
Takiri: .........
Tagitsu: By our very nature, there is no difference in our strength. However, the humans need you unlike me...
Tagitsuhime: And this is the result!
Takiri: Gagh...!!
Kanami: Takirihime!
Tagitsuhime: Now, return to me!
Kanami: Takirihime...
Takiri: Ahh... So that is how you look, Chidori girl...
Kanami: Takirihime!
Takiri: I saw you... Flying freely...
Takiri: Like the other name of that sword. You could even cut through lightning... Fly...
Takiri: Humans... Fast... high... and... far...
Kanami: Ahh... Takiri... hime...
Tagitsu: That's better!
Ellen: She absorbed... Takirihime...
Sayaka: No...
Kaoru: Oi... What the hell do we do now...
Nene: Ne...
Mai: That means Tagitsuhime is even stronger...?
Hiyori: Gh...!
Tagitsu: Hm...　I could grow accustomed to this.
Tagitsu: Ahahaha!!
Tagitsu: With that settled, how to crush the gnats who would oppose me?
Tagitsu: Know this... I have won!
???: Nahh~! Not yet!
Hiyori: That's...!
Sayaka: The fourth seat of the elite guard...
Kaoru: Tsubakuro Yume!
Yume: ......Nihi!



5: Desire's Hold (1)

Yui: I'm so happy~! This is so fun~! Each and every one of you are just my type!
Chie: Yui-chan, Hana-chan, get a hold of yourselves! We don't have any reason to fight each other!
Hana: What a weird thing to say. Of course we do.
Hana: Tagitsuhime-sama is the one who will create our utopia. Anyone who would get in her way deserves only death.
Kiyoka: Utopia...?
Hana: It's no lie or false pretense-- A world without a shred of ugliness.
Kofuki: And lemme guess, the catch is humans aren't allowed in that world either?
Hana: Why do you have a problem with it? If that's what our princess decided, that makes it right.
Kofuki: You're not even trying to talk sense.
Mihono: Hey, seriously, what happened to you two?
Hana: Nothing happened. I just couldn't take my life full of lies anymore.
Hana: Living as a spy meant telling one lie to bury another. Under all that, who was I supposed to be!?
Hana: Even though I didn't amount to anybody, the imperial guard accepted me. Even someone who was "just there" like me, the imperial guard accepted.
Yui: Tagitsuhime-sama is our savior goddess. I feel sorry for all of you, not understanding how blessed it feels to fight for that goddess.
Mihono: Savior...? Yui, she saved you from something?
Yui: Mm... But, even if I told you about it, it wouldn't do any good.
Yui: You're cute, Mihono-chan, but you can't save me. You can't do anything.
Mihono: But...
Chie: Is this what the noro did to you? It's clearly different from what they gave to the elite guard, though. This is just brainwashing.
Yui: Shouldn't we get started already? If you go easy on us, you're going to die. So take this seriously. Okay, everyone?
Mihono: ...Isn't there any other way?
Kofuki: They're more than happy to fight. This is all we can do!
Mirja: This is my fault... Because of me...
Chie: Mirja-san, hang in there! Here they come!



6: Desire's Hold (2)

Kiyoka: Pant, pant... Th-They're strong...
Hana: We've still got strength to spare, but this is all it takes to make you give in?
Yui: Maybe we got a little too strong?
Chie: Open your eyes, you two! Can't you see how wrong this is?
Hana: I told you, our eyes are open. And there's not a single thing wrong about it.
Mirja: It's all, my fault... My miscalculation... Led to this...
Yui: You've got it all wrong, Mirja-san. It's thanks to you that I got into the imperial guard. I really should be thanking you!
Mirja: Kh...
Kofuki: Don't start the pity party now! You can say sorry till it kills you later! But right now, keep your eyes on the enemy!
Yui: Al~right, I think it's time for round 2--
Hana: Wait, Yui. They gave the order to retreat.
Yui: Ehh~, but things are finally heating up over here? How am I supposed to turn down something this delicious~!
Hana: One last thing, Mirja-senpai. Some advice for you.
Hana: As an Ayanokouji toji, you should join the imperial guard. You'll find salvation there.
Yui: Yeah yeah, I know you'd make a fan~tastic member of the imperial guard, Mirja-san. Anyway, till next time!
Mihono: Wait, you two!!
Mirja: Why did it turn out like this...



7: Secret Weapon (1)

Yume: YAAA-------!
Tagitsu: Tsubakuro Yume. You should be dead...
Yume: Hehe, I am not that weak!
Ayumu: Protect Tagitsuhime-sama! Drive the enemy away, quickly!
Yume: I'm not here for you losers.
Imperial Guard: She might be from the old elite guard, but we can take her if we surround her! All members, move in!
Yume: Kyahahaha! You can be my warmup then!
Ellen: We can't let Yumecchi fight by herself either! Let's go-!
Kaoru: I mean, won't she be fine on her own?
Ellen: We! Are! Going! To! Help!
Kaoru: If you say so...



8: Secret Weapon (2)

Imperial Guard: GYAAAA-!!
Yume: This imperial guard of yours is a joke, you know?
Hiyori: What's with that insane strength...
Tagitsu: Interesting. Well done, for one half dead.
Yume: I wasn't even trying though. I can't show my good side against something like that.
Tagitsuhime: Enough babbling, little girl. No matter how strong, you're still human. No match for me.
Yume: Then, I'll show you me at my best, Onee-san.
Yume: Gegh!! Cough cough, cough... Urghh...
Sayaka: Blood...? I didn't see her get cut.
Kanami: I know. Tsubakuro-san didn't get cut. That's from...
Yume: Cough cough... Why now...!!
Tagitsu: Far from the best of shape, aren't you.
Tagitsu: Mm... Having achieved my purpose of absorbing Takirihime, I have no reason to remain here.
Yume: Don't... Go... Cough cough...!!
Tagitsu: Farewell, half dead.
Yume: Just when... I got to... Show everyone... How great I am... Cough cough cough...!!
Maki: Yume!
Yume: Maki-onee-san... Suzuka-onee-san... If I just had a little longer... She got away...
Suzuka: You did what you could. Rather, I'm impressed how well you did with your body in that state...
Maki: ...Yume. Even if it's hard, you have to be ready for action soon. Just rest for now.
Suzuka: Listen to her. We need you, Yume.
Yume: Ehehe, "you need me"...? That sounds, nice... Say that again later, Suzuka-onee-san...
Maki: Yanase, can I leave handling the aftermath here to you?
Mai: Y-You can count on me!
Suzuka: In that case, everyone, I'm sorry, but we need to leave.
Ellen: Yumecchi was amazing back there. She beat most of those noro powered toji all by herself.
Kaoru: Yeah... I bet only someone like Kanami could top that.



Other: Scheme in Motion

Yukina: Princess... I'm told everything is ready for you.
Tagitsu: I see... However, I have no interest in it.
Yukina: But, Princess...! Isn't this the perfect opportunity to show the world your beautiful figure!
Yukina: Do you know how hard I've worked to make today possible? Please, spare me some patience...
Tagitsu: Hm. Then... Out of respect for your efforts.
Yukina: Ahh, I'm glad to hear it...
Tagitsu: Now, to make my appearance.
Yukina: Of course, Princess!
